SAN LUIS REY TRAINING CENTER REOPENS by Dan Ross AIt=s wonderful back there,@ said trainer Phil D=Amato=s assistant Linda Thrash, turning her eyes to the bright ochre red roofs of the barns behind her. AEverything=s cleaned, repaired, painted. It looks great. I=m really happy.@ We=re stood at the entrance to the San Luis Rey Training Center training track early on this bright Monday morning, surrounded by a wall of sunlight and color and life. Trees blanketed in leaves. Hillsides drenched in all shades of green. Flowers a labyrinth of reds, blues and yellows--a vastly different sight to that only four months before, when Thrash had been one of the many who fought through the black smoke and the flames and the searing heat in an effort to save the near 500 horses trapped there by the Lilac Fire that engulfed the facility that fateful December afternoon. In all, 46 horses perished. Martine Bellocq and Joe Herrick were hospitalized. Trainers, grooms, and hotwalkers watched helplessly as their lives and livelihoods disappeared into cinders and ash. Time, however, has a way of sweeping all before it, and time has certainly had a transformative effect on San Luis Rey. And this morning marked the re-commencement of training at San Luis Rey. Horses belonging to trainers D=Amato, Richard Baltas and Doug O=Neill trickled back in over the weekend--Saturday being the four-month anniversary of the tragedy, coincidentally--and the rest of the horses stabled temporarily at Del Mar will return this week. Before all horses can return to San Luis Rey, however, there=s still more work to do. Not that facility general manager Kevin Habell and his crew have been sitting idly by. AIt=s been a heck of a project,@ said Habell, about a seven-days-a-week work program now nearing its fourth month. They start between seven or eight o'clock in the morning.

Vino Rosso has been poised for a breakout performance for several months now, and he finally put it all together on Saturday with an off-the-pace, foul-claim-surviving rally in the GII Wood Memorial S. This $410,000 KEESEP Curlin colt seems to have his niche rallying from farther back rather than pressing the pace a bit closer like he did in his four previous starts, but I am hesitant to take his Wood victory at face value because it came up on paper as the weakest of Saturday=s nine-furlong preps and featured an overly ambitious lone pacemaker setting up the race for closers by laying down :22.96 and :46.69 solo splits.

MISTY BREEZE-UP DAY AHEAD OF GOFFS UK SNITZEL, ARROWFIELD by Chris McGrath LEAD EASTER OPENER For once, it looked as though even horsemen of the old school might actually envy all that expensive timing kit. As they arrived yesterday morning, mist was still sitting so heavily on Town Moor that it otherwise promised to be impossible to get a proper reading on the young horses going through their paces on the eve of the Goffs UK Breeze-Up Sale. A couple of hundred years ago, no doubt, horsemen of more enterprise than probity doubtless made maximum use of such conditions on this historic turf. But the whole point of the under-tack show is that it affords no hiding place. In the event, the mist began to lift just as the breezing got underway. From time to time, in fact, a watery sun even peered through to illuminate proceedings--at least to the extent that conditions underfoot allowed. Cont. p8

The average was up 11% to A$373,895, while the median remained the same as day one last year at A$300,000.

Bloodstock, in Abel Handy (Ire) (Arcano {Ire}). In all, 44 juvenile winners graduated from the 2017 sale, up from 37 the previous year. The message from Henry Beeby, the Goffs UK chairman, was clear. "We've had more 2-year-old winners out of this sale than any other European breeze-up over the last two years," Beeby said. "I think the point is that the vendors pick the horses for us, as much as we do when we go looking with them. They know there's a Donny type, just as there is with the yearlings, so we're blessed that way. And they've stepped up to the mark again.@

"Two years ago the sale definitely stumbled, but then we had great results on the track--four winners at Royal Ascot, the two Stephen Hillen | Alayna Cullen 2-year-olds out of that sale and then the two [older] Group 1 winners on top--so that brought us storming back last year and Goffs UK Breeze-Ups Cont. we had a wonderful sale," he said.

The aggregate breeze-up herd this spring "Normally they distil it down for you, when you send them the is drastically enlarged. This catalogue, for instance, is up to 207 forms," he explained. "We sent out the same number of forms from 152 last year. (A staggering curio: no fewer than 18 are by this year as last year, but the take-up was greater. We didn't set Dandy Man (Ire).) And apparently there are still fellows out out to get over 200 horses. We were aiming for around 180, there complaining that they can't get a sales slot anywhere. But 190. But you've got to go with it, and trust the vendors to send those professionals who have worked so hard to elevate the you the right horses." profile and potential of the breeze-up horse will not be grateful That was not to wash his hands of the responsibility if things if people treat the sector merely as a refuge for unsold yearlings. don't work out.

If they Cont. p10 call them "trainers' horses," then partly that might be because they don't actually involve a great deal of training. But the main appeal, clearly, is that many of these animals can be pushed to owners as more or less ready to roll.

They had cost ,170,000 apiece, but last year another son of Kodiac brought more than twice that sum, at ,360,000, from Richard O'Gorman for Godolphin.
